Poke Hanoi

Hanoi


Just the ticket for a good-looking detox in a neat and wholesome wood-furnished space with an outside terrace and parasols. Choose your rice base, fish (salmon, spicy tuna, octopus etc) or tofu, sauce, topping and a crispy sprinkling, all added to a large bowl, and enjoy. For views of the lake you'll need to fight for the table in the terrace corner.
